Motion Tracking from stationary observer

Setix — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 17:07:21 +0200

Hey guys..

I have an issue at my house right now...Young hoodlums of unknown origin have been sneaking onto my property and stealing things off my deck, and animals have been getting into my garbage.

I want to build a robot that when motion is detected with a passive ir sensor, a webcam will activate and start recording, however I want the sentry to track the movement with some precision, since the target (hoodlum or rodent) will be of different sizes.

How to build your first robot - Part III - Get a grip!

This is part III of a series I call “How to build your first robot”.

This part is not so much instructions of how to build & program, that was in Part I-II.

To finalize Part I-II, I will just say; I may put “construction time” to a few hours when entering a robot. And it is possible to make a robot in 10 minutes if you have the materials in front of you.
